How many Treatments will I need?
The total number of treatments needed by an individual patient differs widely due to many variables. These include:We begin with an initial series of four treatments, which are administered at a rate of two treatments (up to four, in severe cases) per week in order to establish your individual response rate. By the end of this initial series we will have the information we need to draw up an accurate estimation of treatment for your individual case.
Oriental medical practitioners have unsurpassed diagnostic techniques that have been developed over the past 4,000 years. Basic diagnosis includes a thorough medical history evaluation, visual diagnosis, abdominal palpation and a complete pulse and tongue diagnosis. Visual diagnosis involves careful examination of the patient’s skin and visible markings. Pulse diagnosis, which takes years to master, shows the condition of balance or imbalance amongst the organ systems. Your tongue visually reflects the condition of your inner environment. Through abdominal palpation we can detect problems within your health profile.
As appropriate, we refer our patients for scientific Western blood analysis, urine testing, X-rays and stool samples. Some have called our approach “complimentary medicine, and it is true that our practices combine well with common Western protocols.
